Very Rare Accessory Kit for a ManSon Lathe. The Brand Name is Worn Off. Wooden Box in Good Condition. The Accessory kit Came in Many Variations but the Wooden Box itself seems to be one of the few. Set Includes 21 pieces. 1 Standard Bent Tail Lathe Dog. 1 Tailstock Drill Chuck. 1 Diameter Face Plate. The Black and White Photo is a wooden box accessory kit as shown in the maker’s sales literature. The wooden box was superseded, first, by a hardwood-lined, 6″ x 4″ plastic box and then a wood-lined metal case. Although it’s impossible to be categorical as to what was included (the writer has received various testimonies concerning the contents and factory lists varied with some having pictures and others without) the first kit is known to have contained a steel-bodied 4-jaw independent chuck (stamped with the ManSon name and address), a collet-holding nose-piece to take the supplied four collets (in stress proof steel) of 1/32″, 1/16″, 3/32″ and 1/8″; a 1 1/2 ” or 1 3/4 “-diameter faceplate with eight tapped holes, a tailstock drill-chuck, two tailstock collets, one countersink centre drill, two lathe dogs (sizes 3/16″ and 3/8″), two high-speed tool bits (ready sharpened and ground) and an Allen-wrench. The two centres, which appear in most collections, seem not to have a home in the kit and may have been supplied as part of the lathe’s standard equipment; some are of identical length, others with one of the pair longer than the other. Similar kits, but with different ranges of accessories, were also produced. Depending on the date of manufacture, the 4-jaw chuck was also known to have been supplied in a larger size, with an aluminium body, but without any maker’s identification.
